Not sure what typo you are referring to. . the first line was intentional. . that’s how I talk 🙂
So sorry! I thought you meant game day “food”, my mistake 🙂
Sonali, oh my gawd, you are right! 😛 I thought you were referring to me beginning the sentence with “And.” 😛 Thank you!!!
Haha, that is so funny! Don’t tell the grammar police, but I always start my sentences with “And..”!
